care or custody of a child less than sixteen years old, he or she  fails
or  refuses without lawful excuse to provide support for such child when
he or she is able to do so, or becomes unable to  do  so,  when,  though
employable,  he  or  she  voluntarily  terminates his or her employment,
voluntarily reduces his or her earning capacity, or fails to  diligently
seek employment; or
  2.  being  a  parent, guardian or other person obligated to make child
support payments by an order of child support  entered  by  a  court  of
competent  jurisdiction  for a child less than eighteen years old, he or
she knowingly fails or refuses without lawful excuse to provide  support
